Would I just need a daughterboard with Z80 and ROMS? Can I leave the Pac board alone or do the ROMs/Z80 need removed? Reverse threadjack! hehe

Click to expand... I know, I was thinking about switching between the two without yanking chips though. Wondering if that's possible... There's multi-pacs though with both on em right? Still haggling with the seller though, and he wants too much for what isn't even a dedicated cab. Moon Patrol as well. Meh, oh well... Last edited: Nov 24, 2010
